On a long road trip along 75 and need a place to sleep for a while. Found the Avid hotel in Ringgold and it got great reviews. Had never heard of them but reviews made me give it a try based on reviews. Glad I did! Super new (I asked, just under 2 years) and super clean. Right off 75 so that was perfect. Breakfast was actually great - premade Jimmy dean breakfast sandwiches, a lot of grab and go fruit, yogurt, bagels, muffins, etc. Awesome Costa high tech coffee dispenser. I have this one bookmarked and will be our new go to on our drives up and down to Florida.

Our stay turned out to be wonderful, thanks to Toni! If it weren’t for her, our trip could have become quite unpleasant. We had booked through a third-party site, but unfortunately, the reservation was canceled due to their mistake. When we arrived, there was no record of our booking, but Toni was incredibly patient and kind while I called the site to sort things out. In the end, I canceled the original booking and made a new one directly with Toni — the whole process took some time, but she made it go smoothly, and we were so grateful. The hotel was clean, comfortable, and relatively quiet. Breakfast offered plenty of food options, and the Costa coffee machine (plus hot water machine) was a big plus! We also enjoyed being able to walk to a nearby restaurant for dinner and relax watching sports on the big-screen TV in our room. Thank you, Toni, for your exceptional help and hospitality — thumbs up!

Clean, contemporary room. Staff very helpful. Breakfast was basic but above average. Only downside, our room did get a fair amt of road noise.

New, clean, spacious, esthetically pleasing lobby and breakfast area, nice breakfast, parking for over length vehicles, pet accommodations, (doggy area with bags), access rooms are extra large for those in wheelchairs, no carpets. No downside for us. This was our second stay in six months and it was just as nice as the first.

Check in was fantastic and easy. The guy working midnights was extremely helpful and went above and beyond to fulfill a request for some ketchup for my Doordash order. The room was cozy and the bed slept amazingly great!! Upon checking out Jennifer was absolutely stellar in her quest to get me a printed receipt. She did all that she could and was top shelf!

I really like the value of this hotel. While some might say the rooms are small they are sufficient and well appointed. I like the large TV and breakfast was better than the Holiday inn express. Location was okay not too far from eating places.

Ginger at the front desk was very kind, friendly and helpful. We had an issue with the room heater and she sent a very efficient maintenance man up to the room. When he couldn’t trouble shoot the problem, they promptly gave us another room. Certainly, it wasn’t their fault the heater was making noise, they together solved the problem and made their customer satisfied.

Honestly one of the best hotels I have stayed at while traveling! The front desk lady was super sweet and helpful. Breakfast was out earlier than we expected and we were able to grab some before heading back out. Rooms were very nice. You can hear the highway traffic but being super close to the highway made sense but my fiancé was able to sleep. Definitely will be staying at more of these
